My son had his first show this past weekend. He did pretty good considering. On sat he had his showmanship show. THere were two classes of 9 and under, 4 in each class, he was pretty nervouse and was hoping for 3rd or better. Unfortuanately all the practice at home he froze, and said he "Forgot what to do" luckly the ringmaster helped him out. he came in 4th, the judge brought all 4 of them back and 2 from the second. class. which he started to do much better. The steer was trying to get the best of him a couple times too but he held on and as my daughter says "tell him whose boss!" he did good.
The second day was Market Class, he came in second in his class. out of seven. he wasn't picked for reserve in the open class champ round. but we were pretty happy with the results anyways. said he has a good top, but lacking a little in the quarters. Had a little mess up on fitting but its been a while since we done it. But he showed the steer like your suppose to and did a good job of it. he had him stretched out a tad bit in profile stance but all in all a 65lb boy showing a 1105 lbs steer did a good job.
ALl in all, Caleb had a great time and wants to do it again.
ill try to post a picture of the steer now. most of them didnt turn out soo well.
just thought id share
